Favs
One of my favs from the entire series. I loved and enjoyed it so much! The storyline was so interesting and, had me on the edge of my seat throughout my entire read with all those twists and turns. I just loved the romance in this one, and almost everything it offered. I loved how much they wanted each other, how much they were into each other, their obsession and their possessive thoughts, their want to be together and have their own HEA, super sweet moments between them, the steamy scenes, but mostly how the characters were nicely developed and how well they fit together; and the dark romance elements were super wonderfully done!! Moreover, I also loved seeing favorite characters from the previous books and can’t seem to wait enough to read the next instalment already.

Amazing!
I haven't been able to put this book back down until I finished it. It was a new world for me since I did not read the previous books in the series, yet it was intriguing. As the title indicates, Ariana's soul has gone through some sorrows and now she's set to get revenge for all the wrongs that were done to her by the people who were supposed to love and protect her. That's where Cash comes in. At first, he thought that getting Ariana was just about powerplay for him but as they spend more time together, it becomes more about protecting her from the people who want to harm her. Tbh this wasn't much of a romantic story according to me but you're going to get an intense plot with some twists. I really enjoyed it and will be continuing to read the series!

Little Nightmare being the best nickname for me!!
Sav R. Miller proved it again!! I already knew this story was gonna be superb. Cash and Ariana stole my heart from the very instant of the book. The chemistry and electric spark between them OMG SO SO INTENSE!! Ariana is such a badass, I love her vengeful persona and her soft heart which she shows very rarely. Cash being a lawyer is dangerous and he will go to anything just to save Ariana. His instant want for her was just so satisfying throughout the book. Honestly, I was flying into my happy place throughout this journey. Gosh!! THE BEST STORY I'VE READ THIS YEAR.

Great condition
Book arrived in great condition.This book is dark romance and it won’t be for the taste of all readers.The story gives us Cash and Arianna and a good amount of tropes: forced proximity, marriage of convenience, slow burn, auction, lawyer/mafia princess, and touch her and you 💀 vibes with some questionable behaviors from all the characters while this two fall in love. As I said it won’t be for all readers.Still I like the story, and like the development of the characters as they come closer to each other. It is a quick read and two POV’s which move the story along quite nicely.4/5 🌟’s

I think I loved this most
Oh little nightmare and cash. This one hit me good to the point where I want to know where my man is that calls me little nightmare.. while I’ve read each of Sav r millers book, this one had a different vibe while still staying aligned with the series. Very much enjoyed and love seeing the prev book characters continue to be involved.

Devastating
Jesus Christ, what an intense bookWhen I read Arrows and apologies, I confess that I was expecting this book to be about Violet, not Cash, and certanly not with Ariana.Then again, there's not a single one of this book series that get me unhappyAriana's past is hard to tackle on, she suffered so so much it hurted me, all of the trauma, the reflects on her personality, the way she is always expecting the other shoe to fall is so devastating.Then we get Cash, he is so perfectly made for her, the way he understand and accept all her nuances, her shades and darkness, like it is a twin of his own, and he is so caring, I've loved him, and his impetousness.This is not an easy book to read, but it's completly worth it, it's a journey of hurting and healing, there's the ugly and the beautiful sides of the evolution, learning to trust, and to love, and to give in.Thank you for another perfect book, Sav!

The Best type of Cash
Every time I read a Sav R Miller book I think “wow there is nothing that can top this book” until the next book comes out. I thought it was hard to top Boyd and Fiona and then I met Allistair and Cora, and then.. Cash and Ariana happened. I went into this book expecting to be blown away, but I was not prepared to actually cry from a book and honestly have my soul ripped out and put back in.What I love about Sav’s characters is that typically they are people we have ‘met before’, Ariana is Elena’s (P&P) sister and Cash is Lenny’s (O&O) brother. What I loved about this book, personally, was that I got a Juliet (think back to Sweet Solitude) vibe from her, and she was one of my favorite characters ever written."Like every woman before me, my soul was born fractured."The book opens up with a prologue, TRIGGER WARNING, that does not explicitly say what is happening, but you can read between the lines- Ariana’s mom is a horrible person. Her mother has done things to her that are unspeakable and that was the moment I cried.Then we fast forward to Cash at a bar and he sees a blonde girl and he’s intrigued, the girl just so happened to be Ariana- Ariana who is engaged to a monster of a man that I wanted to slap.Without any spoilers , there happens to be a ‘auction’ that our girl Arian goes to because F the police she does what she wants… and then Cash being Cash is like MM I WANT THAT LET ME DROP MILLIONS, seriously millions. They end up having to get married, Ariana didn’t read the fine print because hello why would she? And honestly entertainment ensues.I wasn’t prepared for Cash, he was very brutal sounding at first, he was kind of big headed and I wanted to slap him for being rude towards Ariana, but he grew on me big time. He has a secret that I was not prepared for and made me love him more, it’s a secret that he basically was rude and a brute towards Ariana because he wanted her but didn’t know how.There are a lot of plot twists, hatred towards family members, and moments that will break your heart. Ariana is a strong woman, she has been through so much and she deserves everything. Cash, being Cash, is struggling to show her that he likes her because he thinks that he shouldn’t and whatever he is doing is wrong (bby boy you are perfect). This book does doe snot have a ton of ‘sex’ scenes (compares to other books people might have read) but that made the scene 1000 times more amazing, because they weren’t on every single page.You get well loved characters (UH DADDY KAL IS THAT YOU!??!) who keeps it entertaining, there is a moment that made me tear up with Ariana and Kal.. I’ll leave it at that but.. Hold on tight."Then man looked like a f***ing vampire, sitting there in his trench coach, with his dead eyes starting at the table as he says something to himself."Go into this book blind, but also know that there are triggers:Mentions of Sexual AbuseGory violenceSchmexy momentsThis book is amazing, and honestly my favorite in the Monsters and Muses Series. So many things made this book perfect, the heartbreak that Ariana went through, the similarities towards Juliet (it might not be everyone's view but I honestly saw a lot of her in Ariana), and the old characters coming back.
